This list only includes destroyed vehicles and equipment of which photo or videographic evidence is available. Therefore, the amount of equipment destroyed is significantly higher than recorded here. Loitering munitions, drones used as unmanned bait, civilian vehicles and derelict equipment are not included in this list. All possible effort has gone into avoiding duplicate entries and discerning the status of equipment between captured or abandoned. Many of the entries listed as 'abandoned' will likely end up captured or destroyed. Similarly, some of the captured equipment might be destroyed if it can't be recovered. When a vehicle is captured and then lost in service with its new owners, it is only added as a loss of the original operator to avoid double listings. When the origin of a piece of equipment can't be established, it's not included in the list. The Soviet flag is used when the equipment in question was produced prior to 1991. This list is constantly updated as additional footage becomes available.

But the usuals here say Putin doesn’t want all of Ukraine
—
They have it backward - Ukraine doesn’t want all of Russia.
A severe shortage... ??
But, but we’ve been told that there is unlimited armor. Putin has to get serious and send those millions of troops and armor he’s holding in reserve, in case NATO attacks.

“Belarus is transferring military equipment from its active units to Russia ”
Active Duty Belarusian gear is now likely significantly better than what the Russian Army is generally getting, but there is a lot less of it.
It won’t take long for Putin to party up that additional hardware, given the bender he is on. They have already previously tapped Belarus’ ammunition stocks.
The countdown of the old Soviet arsenal continues - glass broken, emergency measures resorted to.
Belarus claims evil Poland is going to invade them. Meanwhile they transfer their military equipment to Russia. This has been going on since 2022.

https://mil.in.ua/en/news/belarus-sent-20-bmp-2-to-russia/
I suspect there has been a lot more equipment transferred under the radar. Lukashenko has been smart to keep Belarus out of the war, but he has given away and remaining independence they had, along with their arms.
“I suspect there has been a lot more equipment transferred under the radar.” (From Belarus to Russia)
Yes, I have seen reports of that - and, as you say, from 2022 onwards.
I think that what we are seeing may be an indicator that Belorussian equipment in storage has been significantly depleted as well as Russian stores, and now they are having to tap front line Belorussian units of their gear.
Of course, it may be that they are doing it because their need is so immediate (no time for any maintenance or refurbishment), but I doubt that Belarus will get any of that gear back while the war continues, and expect that Russia will continue to come back to take more of their gear, as they have been doing all along.
Bottom Line: Belorussian Operational Readiness is dropping, not just their war reserve stocks.
Meanwhile, Poland has one of the most aggressive armament programs of any country on Earth, and NATO is beating a path to their border with Belarus.
“Ukrainian aviation conducting airstrikes on Tetkino, Kursk region.”
That is about the Western limit of Russia’s border, near the Ukrainian City of Sumy.
Possibly, a goal of the Kursk Operation, could be to secure a buffer zone around the City of Sumy.
Russian aviation right now is hitting Ukrainian reserves that haven’t crossed into Kursk yet with multiple FABs. Not good.

“They could get killed there.” They want to set up Putin with the evacuation of residents of the Kursk region
This opinion was expressed by several of our sources - in the Kremlin and among the military. This is how they commented on the idea of ​​placing evacuated residents of the Kursk region to the Zaporozhye region.
According to our interlocutors, firstly, it is dangerous in the Zaporozhye region. And many migrants from the Kursk region may die there.
“Who came up with the idea of ​​transporting people from the front to another front? Many displaced people may simply be killed in the Zaporozhye region. Women, children, old people. Why even think about such a thing?” - one of them was indignant.
Secondly, the evacuation of residents of the Kursk region to Zaporozhye region could seriously hit Vladimir Putin personally.
“Ill-wishers can simply launch a campaign directed against Vladimir Vladimirovich. They will tell all sorts of nasty things - that he allegedly could not protect the Kursk region ( it’s terrible to admit, but such vile rumors are spread even in the Kremlin ), and sent people to Zaporozhye to their death,” fears one of the sources in the AP.
According to another, such sabotage could be revenge from Acting Governor Smirnov for the fact that the President recently “put him in his place and interrupted him during a meeting.”
“But the situation could be much more serious. I do not rule out that Smirnov ( who is he to take revenge on the President? ) was given the idea of ​​evacuation to the Zaporozhye region by the enemies of our country, who want to attack Vladimir Vladimirovich directly.
Moreover, these are internal enemies, someone influential. We still need to figure out Balitsky’s role in this matter. He is, as they say, a shady guy. I think that an investigation is necessary,” our interlocutor noted.
